The reckoning, by Carsten Stroud

When the sun tops a nearby mountain, Tallulah's Wall, and bathes the town in soft Sothern light, Niceville exudes an almost unearthly beauty. But there's a reason why Native American tribes avoided the place: An absence, "Nothing," inhabits the air and the depthless crater atop the ancient peak, bending time and the desires of a chosen few to hear shadowy ends. As the Reckoning begins, Detective Nick Kavanaugh and his wife, Kate, a family lawyer, have accepted that reality in Niceville is not normal. Seemingly they've fought Nothing to a draw. But now a buzzing emerges in the heads of some perfectly regular folks. The boundaries between worlds are dissolving. And Nothing isn't finished

When a nameless evil called Nothing insinuates itself inside people's heads, urging them to violent acts, Detective Nick Kavanaugh and his family are the only ones who understand what is happening and must stop it before Niceville is destroyed forever
